The senior human resources associate munched her way to a first
unofficial competitive eating title earlier this month when she won Brown &
Toland's inaugural bacon eating contest. Money raised through the
competition benefited the American Heart Association.

Brown & Toland recognizes the dangers of a sedentary lifestyle and
unhealthy diet, said Vice President of Marketing and Communications Richard
Angeloni. However, the contest seemed like a new way to raise awareness
among employees about heart disease, the leading cause of death for men and
women in the United States.

"Obviously we all know the dangers of eating too much fat and
cholesterol," Angeloni said, "but this seemed like a fun way to help raise
awareness and money for a great cause."

Del Rosario said she would do anything to raise more awareness, even if
it meant eating a half-pound or more of bacon.

"Whatever I can do to support the program," Del Rosario said. Del
Rosario, among dozens of fellow Brown & Toland employees, will march in the
American Heart Association's Start! Heart Walk slated for noon on Sept. 19.

Brown & Toland has been a corporate sponsor of the association's Heart
Walk since 2004. In 2006, employees began raising money for the Heart Walk
and last year topped the $50,000 mark, the fifth highest amount among 80
participating corporations in San Francisco. Through all efforts combined
over the last four years, Brown & Toland has donated more than $100,000 to
the association to help combat cardiac disease.

This year's walk will cover three miles, from Justin Herman Plaza in
downtown San Francisco to PIER 39 and back again. The event emphasizes the
importance of walking as a heart healthy exercise while raising funds to
help fight heart disease and stroke.
The 2008 citywide goal is to raise $1.5 million.
